Exposure to authentic materials is important in a student's learning of the L2 because if they find themselves in a real life situation, like navigating a bus route with a brochure, they will become more confident in their abilities to be independent out in public. The authentic materials are, however, more generalized in learning, like a course book, because they are meant for the general public, like the course books are meant for the average student. Thus, course books are good for most students, in a round about way. It is impossible to create the perfect course book that will tackle every angle of every student's needs. Course books can still help keep a steady pace for learning L2 and provide a road map , which can be altered, by the teacher. The teacher can add supplemental materials to the course book to flare up the lesson and personalize it to the students' needs.
